Jaime Colaizzi, a former Windsor High School standout, has helped the CSU volleyball team climb to No. 12 in the latest AVCA Division I Coaches Top 25 Poll released Monday.

Colaizzi, a sophomore libero who leads the Rams with 201 digs, helped the Rams jump one spot plus move up two spots in the RPI to No. 23.

CSU, which at 15-0 is one of two undefeated teams in the country, reached their highest ranking since the Sept. 29, 2008 poll, in which the Rams were also ranked No. 12 after an 11-1 start to the season.

The Rams will face one of their hardest road trips of the season, traveling to second-place UNLV — which sits a half-game behind CSU in the Mountain West standings on Thursday — and preseason favorite San Diego State on Saturday. Both matches can be streamed online for free on the Mountain West Network.
